Arcanum: Of Steamworks and Magick Obscura Hints
Delores Beston wants me to get her a crystal ball.
1 of 8: Delores can be found on the west side of town, about 2/3rds of the way up the map, in a group of buildings with the Newspaper office.
2 of 8: She'll say she can't read fortunes without a crystal ball, and she'll ask you to steal one for her from Madame Toussade, who has her shop on the poor side of town, to the southeast.
3 of 8: So go to Madame Toussade's shop -- she'll know why you're there and will tell you to choose sides.
4 of 8: Madame Toussade's reward is a lot better, so pick her side.
5 of 8: She'll give you a crystal ball to bring back to Delores, so go and haul it back there.
6 of 8: Once you give it to Delores, she'll have a Quench Life spell cast on her, and she'll die.
7 of 8: Note: You'll want to complete the Garrinsburg painting quest before getting your reward from Madame Toussade -- if you haven't, she'll just tell you the location of the painting.
